Apple's Apple Orchard

Features
Read full description

Plant apple trees, gather the harvest, and bake warm treats for the neighbors who stop by. Decorate every corner of Apple's world, and when the stars come out, tuck her in for the night — the orchard keeps growing while she dreams. A GAME THAT NEVER RUSHES YOU No timers. No streaks. No punishments for being away. Trees grow gently over real days, the town's love for Apple never fades, and everything you build is still there waiting, no matter how long you've been gone. Tend one tree or tend them all — both are enough. TEND YOUR ORCHARD • Plant apple trees and water the saplings, then watch them grow day by day • Gather the harvest with a tap when the branches hang heavy • Unlock new apple varieties, each with its own color and character • Trees keep growing in real time, even while the game is closed SHARE THE HARVEST • Bake spiced cider, apple pie, golden tarts, and more at the market stall • Get to know the friendly regulars and learn each of their favorite treats • Paint little commissions for the townsfolk • Every kindness earns hearts — the town's love for Apple — to spend on new trees, decorations, and keepsakes MAKE IT YOURS • Decorate the orchard, Apple's backyard, and her cozy home • Sunflowers, birdbaths, picnic tables, cider barrels, rocking chairs, and more • Place each piece exactly where you want it — this little valley is yours A STORY TOLD SOFTLY • Crissy, the woman who raised Apple, visits with warm cider and warmer words • Quiet, tender moments about growing at your own pace and being loved exactly as you are • Collect keepsakes that remember the story you've grown together END EVERY DAY GENTLY • When evening comes, tuck Apple into bed to close out the day • Each new morning brings fresh dew, new visitors, and a little more love than the day before
